Yes, your OpenStreetMap username. Does not need to be something truly related to you, in fact since most of your edits are likely to be near where you live or work I would strongly recommend they not be something related to you or any usernames you would normally use online.

That’s insane! I pay a flat US$0.11/kWh, and if I wanted to go peak/off-peak it would be $0.15/0.06!

$0.51/kWh?! Where on earth is that?!

Does PeerTube offer RSS feeds?

I second this @OP / @Tippon@lemmy.dbzer0.com, you’ll want to think carefully about if this is a situation where an open source/copyleft license is what you want to use. A couple concerns:

• Any Creative Commons license will require the festival to list a credit for your work. That might not be an issue for the app or website, but the festival might not be interested in listing “poster by Tippon, used under a Creative Commons 4.0 license” every time they use something you created on social media, in print, or advertising.
• An open source/copyleft license will permit other people to use the work you’ve created.
  • The festival might not appreciate this if you’ve created a graphic for them and some third party shows up selling t-shirts without giving the festival any money. You might not be able to use CC BY-NC if you want the festival to be able to sell things as a fundraiser, but then that opens it up to anybody to sell what you’ve created for the festival without giving money to the festival.
  • It sounds like you’re wanting to be able to reuse/sell your work to other clients in the future. If any of them figure out that your work for the festival is available under an open source/copyleft license, they can just take that without hiring you and then have their nephew/friend/AI make adjustments to the work you did for the festival.

There are great reasons to use open source/copyleft licenses, but I don’t think they can or should be used in every situation. In this case they could be bad for both your and the festival’s interests. Ideally you’d be able to talk to a lawyer who specializes in contract and copyright law; the festival clearly has similar issues with other volunteer suppliers so perhaps they can find a lawyer willing to donate some time to provide them with a template that can be used for all their suppliers. Or if you’re doing a lot of freelance work yourself it’s probably worth finding your own attorney.

Otherwise I’d try searching online for “example content license,” “example image license,” “example development license,” or similar along with your state/province/country and try to come up with at least something basic to cover you and the festival.

Of course, if none of the concerns I raised are actually issues, Creative Commons has some great licenses.

Like a screensaver for the terminal?

I guess how new are you talking? I think this said it was based on the 2019 release, but I haven’t heard much about recent releases. Winamp 2 was the classic one most people remember. Winamp 3 was a rewrite that was supposed to be better under the hood but a lot of people didn’t like it, mainly for the new interface it seemed. They jumped to Winamp 5 (2+3) to restore much of the old interface while keeping the capabilities of 3. I never had issues with 5 and continued to use it through Windows 7. Haven’t used Windows much since then so I don’t know how it runs now. There have been very rare point updates since AOL took over and later sold it, mostly bugfixes.

Question I’ve been meaning to ask: if I start with cloud can I move to self-hosted later? I’ve seen this before and it feels like a product I could make good use of, especially for getting tabs closed.

I haven’t done any programming in over 20 years, but I think I can make a contribution to projects by trying to improve documentation, once I start using some projects

I’ve seen multiple markdown standards; which one did you implement?

At quick glance Panoramax looks interesting (I have looked some at the others in the past) but lots of the website is in French even selecting English. Maybe that’s something I can assist with.

Yes, I just didn’t realize that auto-renew doesn’t work with PayPal on NameCheap and had lazily set it up with PayPal when I got it because I didn’t want to go get my wallet. Lesson learned!

I had this happen with NameCheap. I’m not sure if they bought it or someone else, but it stayed registered with them. Whoever bought it has held it for a couple years, put up a fake website to look like they were using it, but took it down after a year when I didn’t bite on buying it. Current status shows it’s pending deletion finally for abuse or non-payment. I keep checking to see when I can nab it again.

Wow! I’m paying 10.5¢/kWh for electricity at home here in the US; it’s a little below the national average but not dramatically.

I can’t comment on Linux, but IIRC SMB was best for situations needing both Mac and Windows, so I’d guess that’s the choice. Totally off memory, though.

Wait, this app is free, has no ads, and does not give any info to the developer? It seems like it’s basically a hobby, created by a guy who wanted the app and decided to learn how to code so he could write it himself?

glad that our generation 1 product even has a chance against a $457.18 billion industry

we capture even 1% of that and we win

I mean, yeah, just about any product should be able to celebrate if they were able to hit $4.5 billion in sales. That’s still a big number. But here’s the thing: capturing 1% in that market still will be really hard. Getting 0.1% would be something to celebrate for a first-gen product from a startup. Getting 0.01% should probably be something to celebrate, and if that’s too small of a number to be celebrating then your company’s probably going to fail.

I would think something that sends text messages would be hard to implement as self hosted

I’m using Namecheap but I have had this suspicion that they’re the ones holding it this time. If I could confirm that it would definitely have me looking for another registrar. That feels like it should be against ICANN rules.

I accidentally let my personal domain expire because I was using PayPal with my registrar but they couldn’t use that for auto renew. Someone else bought it but they’re not doing anything with it. I can’t see who owns it because they’re doing a private registration with the same registrar I used, so as far as whois is concerned it’s the same registration it’s always had. This happened once before to me years ago and the people who bought it that time put up a fake YouTube clone in French but I just waited them out and they abandoned it a year later. This has been going on two years now and it still hasn’t been abandoned. It’s not critical to have but it’s annoying that someone’s squatting on it hoping I’ll pay a premium to get it back. It’s not that valuable to me.
